Ever since I became fascinated with photography, it has become my dream to go to Africa to photograph wild animals and birds. Last year, when my friend was organizing a tour group and asked me to join, I signed up without hesitation.
自从迷上了摄影，去非洲拍摄野生动物和鸟类便成了我的一个梦想。去年朋友在组团，问到我时，便毫不犹豫的报了名。
Our trip to Africa finally took place in October this year. We visited four national parks in Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Botswana. During the 16-day trip, we watched lions, elephants, and other wild animals up close, saw beautiful birds unique to Africa, and took tens of thousands of photos.
今年十月，非洲之旅终于成行。 我们去了位于津巴布韦，赞比亚和博茨瓦纳的四个国家公园。十六天的行程，近距离的观看了狮子，大象等各种野生动物，看到非洲特有的美丽鸟类， 拍摄了几万张照片。
It has been over a month since I returned from my trip to Africa. I have finally finished selecting and processing my photos. Looking through these photos, I can't help but recall those exciting moments again and again. In Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe, we tracked wild dogs in the afterglow of the sunset. In Chobe National Park, Botswana, we saw the only leopard on this trip. In Kafue National Park, Zambia, I photographed several kinds of kingfishers. In Okavango Delta, Botswana, we witnessed two newborn lion cubs playing. Now, let me take you through this wonderful trip to Africa with my photos.
从非洲旅行归来已有月余， 终于完成了照片的挑选和整理工作。浏览这些照片，不禁使我一次又一次的回味那些激动兴奋的时刻。在津巴布韦的万基国家公园，在落日的余晖中追踪野狗。在博茨瓦纳的乔贝国家公园，看到此次旅程见到的唯一一只豹子。在赞比亚的卡富埃国家公园，拍摄到多种翠鸟。在博茨瓦纳的奥卡万戈三角洲，目睹刚出生不久的两只小狮子玩耍。 下面，就让我用照片带你一起重温这次美妙的非洲之旅吧。
Chapter 1: Birds （鸟）
On this trip, I photographed more than 70 different kinds of birds. From huge fish eagles to tiny kingfishers, from beautiful bee-eaters to ugly Marabou storks, I had never seen them before.
这次旅行一共拍到70多种鸟类。从巨大的鱼鹰，到小巧的翠鸟，从美丽的小蜂虎， 到难看的非洲秃鹳，都是以前没有见过的。

Chapter 2: African Big Five （非洲五霸）
The African Big Five are five of Africa's most iconic and sought-after animals. The Big Five consists of the African Buffalo, Leopard, Lion, Elephant, and Rhino. Except for the rhinos, which were moved to the protected area due to their small numbers, we were fortunate to see the other four animals on this trip.

Chapter 4: Sunrise, Sunset, Moonrise and Milky Way （日出，日落，满月及银河）
You must have seen the beauty of the African sunset in movies and TV, but when you really go deep into the African grasslands and deserts, you will be shocked. The Milky Way in the night sky also adds a strong touch to this trip.
非洲日落的美景大家肯定在电影电视里见过，而真正深入非洲草原和沙漠，更是会感到震撼。夜空中的银河也为这次旅行增添了浓墨重彩的一笔。

Chapter 5: Victoria Falls （维多利亚瀑布）
The last stop of the trip is Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. Victoria Falls is the largest curtain of falling water in the world, 1,708 meters wide, located on the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia. Due to the dry season, the water flow is often interrupted. However, from the helicopter hovering overlooking, you can still perfectly feel the magnificence of the waterfall.
此行的最后一站是津巴布韦的维多利亚瀑布。维多利亚瀑布是世界上最大的帘式瀑布，位于津巴布韦和赞比亚的边界处，宽度达1708米。因正处于旱季，多出水流中断。但从直升机上盘旋俯瞰，仍然可以完美感受到瀑布的壮观。
Chapter 6: People （人物）
During this trip to Africa, we had the opportunity to interact with local people and learn about their cultural history and current situation, which left a deep impression on me.
